Manual Tremolo - Part 2

My 7 year old daughter sometimes watches me practice and saw me creating a tremolo by moving my hand up and down over a vibrating bar (like a harmonica player would do to create tremolo). She wanted to experiment with a technique that she came up with by creating tremolo with the damper pedal. She agreed to letting me video tape her demonstration.

Does anyone actually use this technique?

John Piper's hanging Out

I'm glad to see John posting stuff here. Man he's a great player and teacher. I've had such great talks with him and totally dig what he has to say musically and philosophically!

BTW - In his spare time John is a FIRE FIGHTER. Yes he runs into 2000 degree buildings on fire to save people. WoW.

Sam's Song by Joe Locke & Christos Rafalides

The first time I saw this Duo was at a marimba Festival. I had my mouth open the entire concert. I was just totally blown away by them!!
Since that day I hear and feel music in a totally different way. Joe and Christos are two amazing musicians that put their hearts in every note they play.
Check out their CD as a duo: "Van Gogh by Numbers". Incredible!!
